Captains Drive In 2010

Captains Drive In 2010 was held yesterday and a magnificent day it was!Ignoring the bitter wind and welcoming the glorious sunshine, Phil & Orla started proceedings at 10am on the 1st tee box with a huge crowd of members looking on & Lady Captain Orla received a brilliant round of applause for her powerful drive. This great start set the tone for a great day. Everyone was all smiles as each team was captured on camera when they reached the 1st teebox and they were still smiling when they came in for their meal. Gorgeous food was supplied byChef Paddy in the kitchen as always and the atmosphere in the bar was fantastic. The craic continued into the evening as everyone relaxed after a hard days golf. Thanks to all the members for coming out and supporting the captains and making the day enjoyable in everyway and we do hope you all enjoyed it!

A huge congratulations to Captin Phil & Lady Captain Orla on the success of their big day and the best of luck from all the team in Killerig for the year ahead.

Despite the weather & road conditions, plenty of families came out to greet him & the kids enjoyed a puppet show & mini disco afterwards. There was great atmosphere in the bar as the kids played and the parents chatted and we do hope everyone enjoyed themselves.
